Hi Anmol

The first step is to understand about OpenTracing. You can find our more information about this here: opentracing.io

Once you understand what distributed tracing is - then the next step would be to look at one or two of the repositories in the OpenTracing API Contributions · GitHub  github org. Some of these repositories represent framework instrumentations that enable applications using these frameworks to easily report tracing information to the OpenTracing API.

For example, GitHub - opentracing-contrib/java-web-servlet-filter: OpenTracing Java Web Servlet Filter Instrumentation  provides instrumentation of servlets to capture inbound service requests and create distrbuted tracing "spans" to represent the invocations. Similarly GitHub - opentracing-contrib/java-jdbc: OpenTracing Instrumentation for JDBC  provides instrumentation for invocations to a database.

Although the task lists infinispan and hibernate, you don't need to necessarily choose these. You should consider which frameworks you feel would be good to enable for distributed tracing, and just check they have not already been implemented in the opentracing-contrib repo.

Thanks for your interest in the task!

Regards

Gary

Hello Sir,
I feel that hibernate would be a good framework to apply distributed tracing. I would like to discuss more about the project and how to apply for it? How can I contact you sir? objectiser

Hi Anup

You can ask more questions here. In terms of how to apply, best to look at the information here: What is Google Summer of Code? | Google Summer of Code Guides
